Student Testimonials

“My favorite honors activity was attending the Honors Conference
last year in Niagara Falls! I learned a lot and had a ton of
fun, and really got to bond with other honors students.” -Mary
McKernan

“The
honors program has made my experience at Salisbury University so
much better. I have learned so much about writing papers,
increased time management, and bettered my discussion skills. It
made me a more confident student and provided me with a place I
can go to focus, study and succeed.”
-Caroline Leahy

“I
had an amazing time at all of the events we did together as a
program at the beginning of the school year, especially the
kayaking trip. I got to meet so many people and it was such a
bonding experience. My favorite part of the Honors Program is
all of the activities that we have and the honors classes. I
also love the Honors House and I go there to study often since
it is quieter and more comfortable than the library.” -Juliet
Vapsva

“The
Honors Program has opened up my academic world. No classes or
programs have ever shown me how far I can reach with education
like the Honors Program has.” Shannon Wiley

“My
favorite activity was the field trip to the National Museum of
the American Indian. I feel that it enhanced the Honors class
and contributed to my understanding of native cultures and the
modern concept of a museum.” -Andrew Jones

“I
really loved taking Dr. Buss’ class on Native Americans and
Museums. It opened my eyes to so many facts about museums and
Native American history! The trip to Washington DC at the end of
the semester was icing on top of a very delicious cake.” -Anna
Van Zeijts

“I
went with the Honors Program to New York City last May and had
such an amazing time. I got to show my friend Chinatown and see
the Statue of Liberty. Then I went to see Les Miserables on
Broadway. It was incredible. But what’s a trip to NYC without
seeing Time Square. I got to enjoy shopping and exploring with some
really awesome people and all for free because of the Honors
Program!”
-Amy Wible

“The
Honors Program really helped me when I started at Salisbury
University. It gave me a community and I’ve met some fantastic
people through it. I really can’t thank the Honors Program
enough for what they’ve done, I wouldn’t be the person I am without it. I’ve always loved the
End of Year Barbecue, everyone
coming together and enjoying the fact that the year is almost
over and congratulating those around them for such great
accomplishments.” -Ronnie Taksler

“My
involvement with honors gave me the ability to enroll in more
challenging classes and have more of a one on one relationship
with professors who knew me and how to help me succeed. I also
met some really wonderful people that are goal-oriented and most
of whom are also musical!” -Hailey Gibbs

“The
honors program has provided me with opportunities to grow
intellectually in seminar style classes that I would not have
been able to access otherwise.” -Becky Miller

“My
favorite honors event was probably moving into the Honors
Living Learning Community freshman year. It made the transition
to college a lot easier and the friendships I made from that
still exist today. It also made me focus on not only doing work
and getting involved but really perfecting and striving to set
the bar for others.” - Ben Sorteberg

“Being
in the Honors Program has allowed me to take courses in topics I
otherwise might have never had the opportunity to explore. It
has also given me the chance to expand my perspectives through
intellectual debates with my peers.” - Sarah Bentivenga

“My
favorite honors activity was the kayaking trip because we got to
really get to know each other. The Honors Program has enhanced
my experience because we are a tight knit group of people and
the outside of school experiences have made my time here very
enjoyable. I love having a good support group and being
challenged academically” -Corryn Burlew
